2007 - 2008 Coyotes Synchronized Skating Team

These Coyotes Synchronized Skating Teams began in 2002 under the direction of Jenny Thompson and Amy Thompson, Co-Directors of the Coyotes Stars and Spirit, and Julie Patterson, Director of Programming and Skating for the Alltel Ice Den in Scottsdale, Arizona. Their coaching experiences bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the sport of synchronized skating. For coach’s bios please visit: http://www.coyotesice.com/skatingprograms/coaches.php

Synchronized skating celebrates the “team” aspect of the sport of figure skating and provides a great opportunity to make friends and learn life skills of team participation, cooperation, presentation, and self-esteem. The goal is to have each practice be a postive growth and learning experience. A basic key to cultivating a team is having skaters who want to share the love of the sport with friends while developing their own talents. The team is organized each fall in preparation of the upcoming season.

Once a team is comfortable with the holds, formations, and transitions, a musical program is choreographed. Past teams have grown into Pacific Coast Sectional competitors.  Annual performances include exhibitions and the Alltel Ice Den Show.  Competitive goals are evaluated as the team matures in skill level and capabilities.
